While the Vanderbilt men’s basketball team is projected to finish near the bottom of the league under second-year coach Mark Byington, the Commodores do have something to build on.
Vanderbilt had a 20-13 record last year and made the tournament for the first time since 2017 before losing to Saint Mary’s in the first round.
This year’s squad has brought in eight transfers and three high school prospects, and one of them has a familiar name if you are a television aficionado.
In Bing’s (the basketball player) bio posted on the team’s official website, it lists all of the three-star player’s accomplishments at Pace Academy, including leading the team to the state championship game.
The most interesting bio notation comes at the bottom of the page under the personal section, where it says:
‘Has never watched Friends.’
Well played, Vanderbilt, even without a laugh track (allegedly).
